# Machoke (Japanese) #p575646 — Expansion Pack

## Summary

Japan's original Expansion Pack arrived in October 1996, more than two years before English Base Set carried the same Machoke, and that head start is why the Japanese edition counts for collectors. Here Machoke flexes one arm against a dark, wooded backdrop, the blue-grey body catching light from the left. As a mid-tier uncommon evolution it was a pack regular, never a chase pull. The modelled guide sits at $3.12, flat over 30 days on 1 copy traded, with 879 days of inventory on the board; no PSA population is on file.
